Up for sale is my 89 YJ Wrangler. It has a 5.3 from a 2001 Silverado. The motor has a little over 100k on it and it was from a friends truck who owned it since almost new. The motor runs great and fires up every time with out issue. The wiring harness was striped down and all the excess wires removed. The ECM was sent out and reprogrammed to the tire size and to do away with the unneeded controls i.e. the egr, rear O2, ect. The ecm is mounted under the dash inside the cab and it does have an OBD2 port to connect to it. The trans came from the same truck and was fully rebuilt including the torque converter and pump. The trans has around 2k on it. The transfer case is a hybrid NP-235 (front half from a S10 and rear half from a wrangler). The case has a SYE from rough country and custom drive shafts made at Frey the wheel man in Syracuse. The rear end is a ford 8.8 from an explorer with 4.10 gears and limited slip diff. The spring perches were cut and welded to set the correct pinion angle. Rear end also has disk brakes. The front axle had the shafts from a 95 with the bigger u-joints. Front axle also has a posi lock set up to do away with the vacuum system. The front axle has had new ball joints, axle joints, bearings, tie rods, ect with in the last year. I set the toe on it but it could use a good alignment. The lift is a combo of 2.5" springs and 2" shackles. The radiator is a aftermarket aluminum built for the 5.3 motor. It has a center console from an S10 blazer to allow for the shiftier for the 4l60e. The speedometer, volt, fuel, and oil gauge in the dash work and the coolant temp is aftermarket. The tach has a wire run for it but would need an aftermarket tach to work off the ecm. The Jeep was a manual and I never removed the clutch pedal or clutch cylinder in case I ever wanted to go with a manual trans. It has true dual exhaust with Magnaflow mufflers. It sounds good with out being to loud to drive on a trail all day. It comes with a soft top and half doors with soft uppers and also hard doors and a hard top (pictured on the white jeep). Also has a TJ grille in it.
I tried to list all the things I have done to it over the years but im sure i forgot a few. The Jeep is not a show jeep but is a great trail rig. Its got some bumps and bruises, scratches, dings, a little rust, hell there is still mud stuffed up under the wheel wells but.... Its one hell of a fun Jeep! It will run down the road great and is great on the trails and will get 20 mpg doing it (if you keep your foot off the floor but its hard to do)
The only reason Im selling it is I have a few projects I would like to get done and selling this will help

NHTSA upgrading Jeep Grand Cherokee, Dodge Durango headliner fire probe
Wed, 15 Jan 2014The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration investigation into headliner fires experienced by a small number of Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango owners has been upgraded to an engineering analysis, the step before the initiation of a recall. In August last year the investigation began with 146,000 Grand Cherokees from 2012 after three complaints were received, but a report on Edmunds says it has been expanded to include 593,299 vehicles covering the 2011-2013 model years for the Jeep and the Dodge Durango, which uses the same headliner assembly, because of possibly 52 incidents of fire.
In some of those incidents drivers have reported a burning odor, smoke or open flames that were contained to the headliner or migrated to another area of the passenger compartment. The culprit has apparently been found: NHTSA blaming an electrical short in the sun visor vanity light wiring, which is routed under the headliner and held in place by three screws. Chrysler began its own probe into the issue when it was first reported and is still looking into the situation while, "fully supporting the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration's investigation."
Four Wheeler crowns Ultimate Factory 4x4... who wins?
Thu, 15 Nov 2012Nearly every automaker doing business in the SUV or pickup truck segments offers a package designed to improve the off-road capabilities of its wares. But, of course, not all such factory kits are created equal. How, then, to separate the wheat from the chaff? Gather each of them up and put them through their paces, naturally.
The folks from Four Wheeler and PickupTrucks.com joined forces to run just such a comparison test, with the winner named the Ultimate Factory 4x4. A total of seven vehicles showed up to the fight: the 2012 Ford F-150 SVT Raptor, 2013 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon, 2012 Nissan Frontier PRO-4X and Xterra PRO-4X, 2012 Ram Power Wagon, and 2012 Toyota 4Runner Trail and Tacoma TRD T|X Baja Series.
With the contestants in place, the whole crew put each vehicle through a battery of tests that included skidpad and acceleration measurements, a hillclimb, a rocky stairstep course and a rock garden. Considering the nature of the beasts, on-road ride and comfort were not part of the routine.
Toyota, Lexus dominate KBB's Best Resale Value Awards
Tue, 19 Nov 2013Toyota and Lexus stormed the 2014 Kelley Blue Book Best Resale Value Awards, winning a combined 18 categories including best brand and best luxury brand. This marks the third year in a row that both automakers have won the Brand and Luxury Brand resale value awards. In all, Toyota won 11 categories and Lexus won seven.
Honda made a good showing, as well, winning two segments (Accord Plug-In Hybrid and Civic Si) and putting one car on the top-10 Best Resale Value list (CR-V). Chevrolet did even better, winning two segments (with the V6 Camaro and the Corvette) and placing three cars on the top-10-overall list (again, the Camaro and Corvette, plus the Silverado 1500).
The other winners came from Jeep, Dodge, Infiniti, Subaru and Audi. To give you a clearer picture of the Toyota and Lexus domination, their 18 mentions represents more than half of the 34 awards (including the top-10-overall list).
